Impact of COVID-19 on the social, economic, environmental and energy domains: Lessons learnt from a global pandemic

M. Mofijur et al.

Summary: COVID-19 has had a significant impact on the global economy, society, and energy sector, necessitating comprehensive preventive measures. Timeliness in waste collection and disposal is crucial for controlling the spread of the virus. In the future, comprehensive socio-economic growth plans will be needed to address potential pandemic challenges.

Ongoing global and regional adaptive evolution of SARS-CoV-2

Nash D. Rochman et al.

Summary: The evolution of SARS-CoV-2 during the COVID-19 pandemic is primarily characterized by purifying selection, with a small number of sites evolving under positive selection. Variants in the spike protein's receptor-binding domain and the nucleocapsid protein region with NLS are enriched with positively selected amino acid replacements. These replacements form a connected network of apparent epistatic interactions and are indicators of major partitions in the SARS-CoV-2 phylogeny. The global virus diversity has been steadily increasing, with distinct periods based on phylogenetic distances and key mutations.
